Show Stopper
Exhausted by the wind, the rain pelting gently,
Quiet as the night who sighs in shadows,
haphazardly over the skies, breathing wisdom
In stars glistening and glimmering, awake like the heart
Who knows the meaning of being intimate
With life, with smiles, insights into the music…

Travel expenses: 1,000$
